Bisquick Gluten Free Pancake & Baking Mix 3 pack for $8.91 (less than $3 a box!)

Currently, Bisquick's Gluten Free Pancake & Baking Mix is $12.54, but you can subscribe and save to receive a 5% discount, bringing the price down to $11.91 for the three-pack.  However, there's a $3 coupon you can apply to bring the price down further.

The coupon was limit 1 use for me.  I was able to get the three-pack after S&S and coupon for $8.91 with free shipping with my Prime.  That brings the cost per box down to $2.97.   This typically retails for between $4-5 per box locally for me, so it's a great deal.

I use this mix specifically for dumplings for chicken & dumplings and for pancakes.  I highly, highly recommend using xantham gum (which can be bought in packets from Hodgson Mills) with this mix as it does make the pancakes and dumplings fluffier and more like "normal". 

Other deals:
Betty Crocker Yellow Cake Mix  - Save $6 on 6 pack

Save $4 on Betty Crocker GF Cookie Mix or Brownie Mix 6 packs

Note:  If you order via subscribe and save, your delivery date will be pushed out.  Mine says "by June 8".  Subscribe and save will save you an extra 5%.

Virginia Hurricane Preparedness Sales Tax Holiday set to run May 25-31

Hurricane season isn't far off, beginning officially in about 6 weeks' time.  Accuweather is predicting 4 hurricanes with 3 making landfall this year, and a total of 16 named storms.  Remember, even tropical storms can dump large amounts of rain and have strong gusts that can wreak destruction, so it's always good to be prepared, especially for power loss.  Virginia holds an annual Hurricane Preparedness Sales Tax Holiday that begins May 25 and runs through May 31.

Items that you can pick up sales tax free include batteries, flashlights, portable and weather radios, duct tape, tarps, cell phone chargers and cell phone batteries, bottled water, and more.  These are subject to the $60 cap on price.  If you're eying a generator, you can skip the sales tax if it costs less than $1,000.  Go here to see the list of approved items. 

Caveat:  Don't just think hurricanes here, folks.  Virginia was wrecked with a derecho last summer, causing massive power outages during a major heat wave.  It's not just hurricanes you need to prepare for!

A flash back to 9-8-11, where we had a stalled storm over our town for hours, which followed a tropical storm by just a few days.  The ground was saturated and 20+" of rain had no where to go... but up.  This is my hubby's car early on in the evening before he had to go jack it up to get it to higher ground.  Our street's drainage was inadequate for the amount of rain received. 

Food Lion deal on Keebler Crackers, Kellogg's cereal deal

My local Food Lion's ad includes a BoGo offer this week:

Each rings up at half price and retails normally for $3.49 in my area.  The latest KFR email I received included a printable coupon (limit up to 6 prints) of a $1/2, which is also good on the crackers.  That coupon would bring them down to $1.25 per box.  Limit 2 free, per the ad.  My kids love the Club and of course, you get KFR points inside the box.

Also noteworthy...

The aforementioned coupon is also good on any 2 boxes of Kellogg's cereals.  So you could use it on the 2 for $6 deal above and still get the Kellogg's Pop Tarts free as well.

If you have 1,000 KFR points to burn, there is a reward where you can get a $1.50/1 coupon good on the crackers. 1,000 KFR points will also get you a $1.50/1 coupon for specific cereals, including Frosted Flakes.
